effects are cut off at the wrong distance. This needs further
investigation.
-* Music plays back differently.
-
- Vanilla Doom was typically played with a SoundBlaster (or compatible)
- card. It programmed the registers for the OPL music chip directly
- in order to emulate the various General MIDI instruments. However,
- Chocolate Doom uses the OS's native MIDI playback interfaces to play
- MIDI sound. As the OPL is programmed differently, the music sounds
- different to the original, even when using an original SoundBlaster
- card.
-
- This can be worked around in the future: OPL emulation code exists that
- simulates an OPL chip in software. Furthermore, depending on the OS,
- it may be possible to program the OPL directly in order to get the
- same sound.

* A small number of Doom bugs are almost impossible to emulate.
An example of this can be seen in Ledmeister's "Blackbug" demo which
